Tad shared, "Leaving CSW has not dimmed my commitment to the mission or the wonderful school that is CSW. Teaching at CSW allowed me to be challenged and shaped by my students for over 20 years. I hope I made a difference in the lives of some of them, but I know that my students and colleagues helped me grow and learn in ways I never would have imagined. Now, more than ever, excellence, intellectualism, tolerance, nuanced understanding and a passion for the truth is essential and institutions like CSW are critical. While we no longer work at CSW we can and should support all that it strives to achieve."
